Bullpens. I couldn’t love them more. They are good and good for you like a bowl of prunes or a pile of old Mad magazines. So with the season approaching I delve into the Hold guys that you want to focus on if your league is awesome enough to include them as a counting stat category. Today is the NL edition, personally I like taking pitchers from the NL to add depth to my bullpen. They have to face weaker line-ups and more pinch hitters. So enjoy who I think you should own in the Who You Want category. I also added a few from each team for you to keep an eye on (but not get noticed doing it by your leaguemates) in the Peeping Tom category. By the by, Rudy just added Holds to the 2013 fantasy baseball projections.

Arizona – Hernandez is the heir apparent closer and a stud for holds a top 10 guy.

I guess if you’re gonna give a bum some credit for coming in with the bases empty and a 3 run lead in the 9th, you might as well give credit to the guy who comes into the game in the 8th inning with runners in scoring position and a one run lead.
